problems viewing pelican parts.

im having problems viewing the pelican site and it seems its been this way a long time.
I have no idea how to resolve this issue.



If I scroll up or down the block in the middle stays, thus making the Pelican website itself very hard to view or navigate. al im able to view is the space abpove or below this block which is intened to be used to select different brands. It isnt; possible to close it or make it clear.

Im viewing in windows on a firefox browser.

are other users also being blocked out by this banner thing?

thanks !

Windows? what is Windows?
Lately Mozilla Firefox consumes alot of RAM, therefore I switched to a version of Chrome, called Chromium. And I don't use Windows. Different web browsers "behave" differently.
Is your browser's window set to 100%?
Pressing CTRL button and rolling scroll wheel on your mouse may resize the browser's window. Assuming that you mouse has a scroll wheel and it survived your red cat!

Thanks that does seem to help , It may be an effect Im getting as "control scrolleyball" does resize the page and the banner at different rates.

Also my vision isn't t what it used to be, be so its also pretty commom for me to resize type sizes, browser preferences.. etc.

Funny , My little red cat does attack my mouse sometimes.. she's a great little hunter. ;-)

windows 11 enterprise edition.

MW. I personally dumped any windows products long time ago, but kept only one computer "infected" with windows. I kinda understand why you got the cat - you try to avoid any rodent infestation in your cars. Better than a tape with cayenne pepper.
You own a few Volvos, do you know that the front calipers (probably from 240/244 series) can be adapted to 924-944 platform? These front calipers are, if I'm not mistaken, fixed 4-cylinder with a bit more plumbing. You may have extra calipers laying around and you may dry fit them to see if these Volvo's brake be better than Porsche's. I remember that 914 owners were upgrading their brakes to something else, but from Porsche's "family". I don't know if the area of brake pads of Volvo's ones greater than the Porsche's ones.

I not only have a cat, she has a friend next door that sneaks in for food anytime I open a door. , im frinedly with the nice neighbor and I dont mind if she comes over too lol the two of them are on patrol so I have no rodents !
windows I dont know what are you running linux? Macs are more stable, just a little expensive.
what i did was made a new post about 944 brake conversions and Im sorry its probably too long as I got a little carried away typing, and probably fell OT a little.

I just did the whole brake system of my 88 volvo 740 it was a lot more time than I anticipated, I made some comparisons to that job and what I expect with the 944 brake system rebuild which Im hoping to do soon. Im aware speaking of volvos is a little OT so I hope Im not agrevating anyone here.
